"It was now the month of the vernal equinox on Gor, called En'Kara, or
The First Kara. The full expression is En'Kara-Lar-Torvis, which means,
rather literally, The First Turning of the Central Fire. Lar-Torvis is a
Gorean expression for the sun. More commonly, though never in the
context of time, the sun is referred to as Tor-tu-Gor, or Light Upon the
Home Stone. The month of the autumnal equinox is called fully
Se'Kara-Lar-Torvis, but usually simply Se'Kara, The Second Kara, or The
Second Turning."
